Homecoming Parade Attracts Crowd The 1976 Homecoming Parade, sponsored by the Student Council, was the largest ever staged with over twenty floats. Suggested by Red Peppers, the theme was “Make Warrior Territory Comanches’ Bur- ial Ground.” Prizes for first, second, and third place floats were won by the Art Club, Vocal Classes, and Social Studies Club. The Art Club interpreted the 18 theme differently than any other club by building a dog house with a bone marked Comanche. Students were dismissed from school at two o’clock to view the parade. Several hundred crowded the football field; others were wait- ing on the parade route. During half time at the football game, the king and queen, along with the three floats, passed by the grandstands.

Miracle Worker Is A Sellout Mr. Ron Pennell directed the 1976 homecoming play, Miracle Worker, which takes place in and around the Keller homestead in Tuscumbia, Alabama in the 1880’s. Annie Sullivan, a former blind per- son, taught Helen Keller language. The plot dealt with the problems Miss Sullivan had to overcome: the sympathy and smothering love of Helen’s parents, Miss Sullivan’s own guilt of her brother’s death, and the control of Helen’s actions. Specific physical traits were nec- essary for the selecting of the cast. After the cast was chosen, they practiced three afternoons weekly during June and July. Becky Sage, who portrayed Annie, and Lori Voss, who portrayed Helen, re- hearsed their fight scene for 180 hours and had to learn the deaf alDhabet. Mr. Pennell chose the Miracle Worker for several reasons. First he wanted students to have experience doing a serious play as well as an opportunity for the community to see this play locally for the first time. In addition, Miracle Worker by William Gibson is read by fresh- men. Mr. Pennell commented, “I really can not express my feelings, but this play was very special to me.” 17
